When I left university I knew so little about food that I did not even know how to boil an egg. We all have to start somewhere. There are many different techniques but I really liked <a href=\"http:\/\/www.foodtv.ca\/ontv\/hostdetails.aspx?hostid=41493\">Laura Calder<\/a>&#8216;s simple and easy technique that she shares on her <a href=\"http:\/\/www.foodtv.ca\/recipes\/recipedetails.aspx?dishid=9116\">Piedmont Eggs<\/a> episode. Let&#8217;s start with the basics!<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Boiling Eggs by Suzie Ridler, on Flickr\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/27833778@N05\/4130222757\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2781\/4130222757_e0fcd01d6d_b.jpg\" alt=\"Boiling Eggs\" width=\"300\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Put eggs in cold water and bring to a boil. I added salt to help prevent sticking but there are online rumours that vinegar works even better. Mine still stuck though so I think I will be trying the vinegar next time. Apparently the fresher the eggs, the more they tend to have the shells stick. Mine must have been delivered that day!<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Boiling Eggs by Suzie Ridler, on Flickr\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/27833778@N05\/4130986464\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2670\/4130986464_6e90376341_b.jpg\" alt=\"Boiling Eggs\" width=\"300\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Once the water comes to a boil, put the lid on, take the pot off the hot burner and let it sit for 10 minutes. Voil\u00e0! C&#8217;est tout! That is all you have to do to have perfect boiled eggs. No greenish hue in the centre of the egg yolk, no gooey un-cooked egg yolks. They were very perfect so I will be using this method from now on. I also immediately replaced the hot water with cold water which is supposed to help prevent sticking but as I said, my eggs were determined to stay shelled.<\/p>\n<p>If you did not know how to properly boil an egg before, now you know a pretty good technique. Do not despair if you are just starting out. Learning about food is a fantastic, entertaining and educational journey that never ends. We are always learning and experimenting. Food makes life exciting.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Why the heck are there boiled eggs in a jar you ask?
